Crazy 1:00am Thought


I just had a random thought...

What would it be like if I took the same approach to guests at Seven and Gateway as I did when I was a bellman at the Biltmore? Why haven't I ever thought about this before?

When I was a bellman I was the epitome of service and hospitality.

I wouldn't tell you where it was I would take you there.

I wouldn't leave you to figure it out I would figure it out for you.

I saw every person as if they had never been to our hotel before. The spiel wasn't a spiel. It was the real deal.

Tips weren't what motivated me...being known for good service was what motivated me.

I took pride in exceeding expectations.

And if Nicolas Cage needed a 6 course lobster lunch delivered an hour away from the hotel...then Nicolas Cage got a 7 course lunch delivered no matter where he was filming his movie.

I think if I took the same approach to working at church as I did when I was an employee of the Arizona Biltmore I would no doubt be a better pastor. I think if I took the same approach to reaching lost people that I would reach a whole lot more.

Random but relevant. That may be a usable tag line for off topic. Not bad...not bad at all.
